Many moons ago, when I actually did tape backups and had a library, the mtx command could read barcodes off tapes if your library had barcode reader. I know it worked with Exabyte and Sun libraries, and I was using Amanda for backups and it supported it. You'd label your tables with amlabel, written at the beginning of the tape, and it stored the barcode in a file for the backup set. -- Later, Darin On Tue, Sep 12, 2017 at 9:41 AM, Paul Groves <paul.groves.787@gmail.com> wrote:
Does anyone have a clue how to read the cartridge memory from an LTO tape? Surely there must exist a command to do such a thing.
I want to add into my script the ability to read the serial number / cartridge usage to be included in my log files.
Also, how do I set the barcode tag on the cartridge? I would also like to do this in a script.
